The Real Madrid coach spoke on Saturday ahead of the clash at Mestalla

Real Madrid coach Zinedine Zidane says he and his team are focused on Sunday's clash at Valencia and not on the Clasico on Wednesday.

"We aren't even talking about the Clasico, the only thing that interests us is what happens tomorrow in Valencia," said the coach in a press conference.

"I know a lot of people are interested in everything about the Clasico but (only) when it's Sunday night, we'll think about it."

On Barcelona having a day longer to recover for the game, Zidane said: "It's La Liga who make the calendar and we respect it. I don't make the calendar so we can't do anything."

On Barca v Real Sociedad he added: "It will be a good game of football for sure and we'll see what the result is. La Real are having a great season like a lot of other teams, that's why we like this league, which is the best. I'll watch the game like any other fan."
